Has anyone been there in mid-Nov? I'm thinking of going there that month due to some left-over leave I have to clear. Is that a good time to go? When is the monsoon season for that area? Any good info much appreciated.
For a more recent report by me and info and lots of photos check here Ahe Dive Resort, Cenderawasih West Papua rain season is officially end of November to end of March.In rain season diving is still enjoyable.Mid November you will be fine on this beautiful little island and whalesharks.

Sipadiver - I was there first week of November 2011. There were some rain, but the trip was still good all the same.
divewench1 - are you Amanda, previously of Absolute Scuba, Bali? You might want to check the dates of your liveaboard trip in August, may not be the best of time to go there

Hi Albert, yes I used to be one of the managers at Absolute! Re: the dates for the liveaboard trip; I bow to the superior knowledge of my colleagues who have arranged this trip, as they have dived the area before.
divewench1 - will be going back to Bali in August.
August may be a good month for liveaboard to Raja Ampat, but Dave might not get his wished fulfilled with the Whale Sharks at Ahe though!
Thanks, Rizal Christian.
This video was filmed by me for the Resort and posted earlier
you are welcome, it was a nice one though !
really inspiring and good promote for Ahe,
As an Indonesian I was amazed and proud of it .
I am searching and planning trip to Ahe, it might not be this year but I'm looking forward to go to Ahe.
It's increasingly popular among divers here, while R4 might be 'too popular' like Bali already .
Then Ahe could be one of the dive spot to go to..
